Lite and sturdy

"So far im impressed with the weight to functionality! Going to be perfect for binos"

Elliott P. (5/5)

Solid

"Ball head is build solid and functions smoothly."

Daniel B. (5/5)

Great lightweight head

"Works great for spotters, binos, and the pan feature is a nice touch."

dan q. (5/5)

Tripod upgrade

"Excited to use this new ball head in combination on my new tripod on my late season hunt this year. Plan on spending some time behind my glass locating elk. That combined with the ability to now shoot off my tripod should be a game changer. Only reason I only gave it 4 stars is my lack of time in the field with it. But looking forward to putting it to the test."

Aziak Backcountry Lite Ball Head

"Fantastic lightweight ball head. Definitely recommend if you are an ounce counter. But I prefer a pan head for glassing and traded for a Wiser BT-20 Ridge Warden. I'm absolutely loving it."

Thomas B. (5/5)

DYNAMITE COMES IN SMALL PACKAGES

"This little lightweight ball head is perfect for glassing with your binos. I love the tension adjustment knob that still allows for smooth glassing with your binos. Super lightweight and durable. Works well in below freezing temps too! Used it on a mule deer hunt in Idaho last year and it was COLD!"

Hunter B. (5/5)

Nice little ball head

"Have only used a couple times so far with Viper HD 11-33x50 and 10x42s. Seems to work pretty nice for what it is. Little fickle for panning but to be expected with a small ball head. No complaints for the size and weight of this. It could work for a rifle in a pinch but I wouldn’t make a habit of it."

John K. (5/5)

Crisp

"Very high quality head for the money, lightweight crisp adjustment and holds weight well for its size."

Ryan B. (5/5)

Perfect lightweight option for your

"Perfect lightweight option for your tripod. Works as advertised. I adapted quickly to the smaller than usual control levers."

Frank C. (5/5)

Aziak Backcountry Lite Tripod w/ ball head

"Since purchasing the Aziak Backcountry Lite tripod, I have gone on several backpack shed hunts. I love how light the tripod is and how small and easy to pack it is! I love the pan feature on the ball head as well! This tripod will be going with me on many more backpacking trips in the future!"
